Apparently, there’s a possible revival of The Office (US) in the works. I don’t see it working. Star Jenna Fischer expressed some insightful reasons why the prospect is problematic.

Putting aside the more general discussion about the boons and curses of resurrecting television shows of yesterday, I’d be more inclined to a spin-off focused on a few characters, rather than trying to recapture the ensemble magic that, frankly, largely faded after Steve Carrell’s departure (save for the last two or three episodes).

Greg Daniels, I humbly submit my pitches:

“The Office: Austin” — Jim, Pam and Darryl at the sports marketing company. Pam has joined them as a graphic designer.
